Storefronts: Expanded Forever 21 set to open at Crossgates

The new — and much much larger — Forever 21 store at Crossgates Mall will open Saturday, after the retailer relocates from its current space on Friday.

The new store, which is taking the old Dick’s location, has 62,000 square feet of space, and that’s a whopping 56,000 more square feet than the current store.

Forever 21 is a clothing retailer based in Los Angeles. The company operates 480 U.S. stores, and the size of those stores varies widely — from small spots like the current Crossgates store to locations larger than 100,000 square feet.
